Wildburnseb:true but just not sure what else Id want to run, been on ubuntu a long time now on the desktop00:00
arbitrarywildburn: Laptop graphics card then? My laptop has a geforce FX go 5200, which I think is earlier than that one, and it works fine with Ibex.00:00

drewbyDoes anyone know how to configure grub if I copy the files from inside the ubuntu install iso to an ext 2 partition and want to boot that partition?00:01
Wildburnseb: yeah, tbh last time I ran anything non Ubuntu was probably redhat 7, or Suse 2, or slackware 4, and that was years and years ago00:01

* cremmora slaps sebsebseb around a bit with a large trout00:02
kpuljekany ideas why my router restarts every half an hour in linux, and in windows it works okay (up to 8 hours, didn't test more)?00:02
Wildburnarbitrary: what versions/kernel?00:03

Madpilotcremmora, troutslapping can move to -offtopic, please00:03
* cremmora slaps drewby around a bit with a large trout00:03
ellanceoSo is there any way at all to display my fsck errors on an external? At all? I've already made 3 posts about this on the forums, but everyone there ignores me every time I make a post, so I've given up on that00:03
Wildburnarbitrary:the restricted drivers? or the whole glx/kernel/driver package from synaptic?00:03
* drewby frowns.00:03
cremmorasorry00:03
sebsebsebWildburn: yeah  Fedora Core 2 and 4,  then Ubuntu since second relse for me.    I just installed FC2,  no Live CD testing first or virtualization,  that came later for other distros.   anyway not used it myself, but Crunchbang is meant to be a very good  Ubuntu based distro00:03

drewbyalright guys i fond a link http://bayanijuan.blogspot.com/2007/07/howto-boot-ubuntu-fiesty-fawn-livecd.html00:04
sebsebsebWildburn: yeah it's ashame that Nivida don't have opensource Linux drivers00:04
arbitraryWildburn: Ibex, kernel: 2.6.27-11-generic00:04
drewbyfound*   There's so much documentation on this, but so much of it is crap or applies to slightly different situations that its hard to figure out.00:04
Wildburnarbitrary: restricted drivers?00:04
arbitraryWildburn: Yes, restricted, version 9600:05
drewbyalright guys i'm going to reboot00:05
cremmorayou dont have to use grub if you dont wanto you can allwayd use win xp boot ini and add thye line witch it will get you into grub after the win boot screen00:05
sebsebsebyeah or you could even use lilo00:05
sebsebseb!lilo00:05
ubottulilo is an alternative [Li]nux Boot[Lo]ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.00:05
Wildburnseb: you sound like you know quite alot about linux? probably more about cli then I do at least, perhaps you could tell me where I would need to go to find possible errors on boot besides Xorg.0.log?00:05
cremmorayou can use anithing you whant00:05
=== bigjb_ is now known as bigjb
Wildburnreally Arbitrary? well I am redling 8.10 cuz I dont care for 8.04 anymore since Ive got 8.10 on desktop, so after I reinstall ill give the restricted drivers a whack again00:06
sebsebsebWildburn: no, but you could get an offical driver from Nivida for your card, and try that00:06
cremmoraget you r self a spare machine load linux and screwwaround with it00:06
Wildburnseb:yeah think the problem there was everytime it needed to build kernel module it failed00:06
cremmoradont be afraid of the software00:07
sebsebsebWildburn: yes the ones in the repo can be  rubbishey00:07
sebsebsebWildburn: well  next Ubuntu end of April, and maybe you get more luck there :)00:07
ellanceoDoes anyone know how to display the output before GDM is started to an external? My monitor on my laptop is broken, and I can't read fsck errors to get it to boot.00:07
WildburnSeb: what I was getting at is do you know how to manually build the kernel module from the restricted drivers?00:07
cremmoraseb wahts your real name?00:07
sebsebsebWildburn: I will upgrade when the beta is out00:07

ellanceoMy laptop monitor is broken00:08
cremmora!exit00:08
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about exit00:08
sebsebseb,because I ended up with problems, untill Gutsy was  on the beta00:08
Wildburnthanks Arbitrary: ill be here during since irc is on the desktop, makes rebooting a million times easier when getting assistance lol00:08
ellanceoI can't see anything I am editing to the Xorg file00:08
ellanceoAll I have is a root prompt, I'm looking for more of a commant I can just enter to switch it.00:09
Wildburnellanceo: in terminal sudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf make sure the x is capitalized in X1100:09
Wildburner and put an editor in there00:09
Dr_willisellanceo,  you can seee the grub menu and the console?00:09
sebsebsebcremmora: what does it matter what my real name is?00:09
sebsebsebwhy do you want to know?00:09
techsupporthow can i archive a directory and it's contents with tar ?00:09

Zykotictechsupport, "tar cvf file.tar path/"00:10
ellanceoI can see GRUB start, and then I get some fsck errors. Exactly what I don't know.00:10
Wildburnellanceo:does it have an external monitor port?00:10
sebsebsebellanceo: ah right yes that issue00:10
ellanceoYes.00:10
ellanceoBut the external doesn't kick on until GDM starts.00:10
uncategorizedso how can i reinstall libgtk?00:10
ellanceoWhich won't because of the fsck errors.00:10
sebsebsebellanceo: ok graphics card drivers gone bad?00:10
ellanceoSo I'm in quite the pickle here.00:10
Wildburnellanceo:plug in a monitor to external port, then run recovery boot instead of graphical boot00:10
ellanceoDoubt it, it's never kicked on before GDM00:11
Wildburnellanceo:recovery boot should output to both screens00:11
cremmorai couldent stay out00:11
ellanceoAh!00:11
* cremmora slaps ellanceo around a bit with a large trout00:11

Wildburnlol00:12
sebsebsebuncategorized: beta is uhmmmmm soonish00:12
uncategorizedi'd like to avoid that00:12
sebsebsebuncategorized: alpha 6 probably be ok,  but  bound to be bugs here and there hummmmm00:12
uncategorizedis there no way to reinstall  libgtk00:12
sebsebsebuncategorized: upgrading to the beta should be alright00:12
Wildburnuncategorized, cant you just reinstall it with synaptic? change your sources list to the intrepid ones first00:12
ellanceoHaha, Ok so I can't see which entry in GRUB is recovery...how many down is it?00:12
mezy_how save changes on a usb after using unetbootin to install ubuntu?00:12
Wildburnone00:12
uncategorizedWildburn: there are no more jaunty servers in sources.list00:12
uncategorizedbut typing aptitude reinstall libgtk2.0-0 gives an error00:13
uncategorizedthat it can't find the libgtk2.0-0 package00:13
uncategorizedand that it might need to be manually fixed00:13
WildburnEllanceo: grub on 8.10 only has 3 options normal boot, recovery boot memtest00:13
sebsebsebuncategorized: ok  I get what you done :d   you thought you could get a later program by using the janty version?00:13
Dr_willismezy_,  unetbootin dosent support 'persistant' save's last i looked with ubuntu. ONCE you install ubuntu via the unetbootin-thumbdrive. you boot the system normally...00:13
uncategorizedyup00:13
mezy_darn!!00:13
uncategorizedsebsebseb: i wrongly hoped only a few non-system important packages would be upgraded00:13
Gartral1why can't i save anything as an SVG??00:13
crdlbuncategorized: you probably don't have the intrepid repos in your sources.list either now ...00:13
sebsebsebuncategorized: it's not as simple as that,  things  have to be ported to the previous Ubuntu release.  for example take  Banshee,  Hardy Heron has a rubbish version, but using  ppa   can  run the Intrepid Ibex version there00:13
Wildburnuncategorized: try recovery console and fix broken packages00:13
crdlbuncategorized: it doesn't work like that00:14
sebsebsebuncategorized: find out about the ppa's00:14
sebsebseb!ppa00:14
ubottuWith Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart.00:14
ellanceoFor some reason I have what looks like 9 entries in Grub, I selected the second one and now i just get a bunch text I can't read, and nothing on the external00:14
uncategorizedcrdlb: i manually edit my sources.list, so intrepid is definitely in there and jaunty definitely not00:14
sebsebsebellanceo: ok yeah loads of kernels?00:14
Wildburnellanceo:what version are you on?00:14
Dr_willisellanceo,  if the laptop has a svideo out - try hooking that up also?00:15
Gartral1i can't find the package needed to allow gimp to create a SVG file00:15
ellanceoI'm on intrepid00:15
uncategorizedWildburn: can i initiate a fix broken packages without a recovery console?  just from the tty100:15
ellanceoLooks like it's just doing another fsck00:15
crdlbuncategorized: did you sudo apt-get update?00:15
Dr_willisI dident think gimp could save svg.. since gimp is a BITMAP editor type program.. not a vector type editor program00:15
Wildburnuncategorized: believe so, but one of the more experienced CLIers will have to tell you the command00:15
Dr_willisbut i may be wrong00:15
=== vita_ is now known as vbabiy
ellanceoYeah, it's just fsck'ing again00:15
crdlbuncategorized: you need to figure out a way to find all packages upgraded to the jaunty version and downgrade them00:15
ellanceomore like fsck'ing up to me00:15
Wildburnellanceo:sounds like you need to reinstall from scratch00:15
uncategorizedcrdlb: yes, apt-get update and also reinstalled the packages....i have reinstall all the explicit dependencies except libgtk2.0-000:16
crdlbuncategorized: but note that doing that is completely unsupported, and may very well break your system00:16
ellanceoMother--00:16
drewbertn8tuser, sebsebseb, i managed to finally boot it, thanks00:16
uncategorizedand i can't seem to get libgtk to reinstall00:16
drewbertYou guys don't know how many things i tried or how long i googled.00:16
drewbertGo team irc.00:16
crdlbin particular, an upgrade to glibc is a big deal ...00:16
ellanceoI've had this fsck problem before, but I just can't remember what I did to take care of it.00:16
uncategorizedE: I wasn't able to locate file for the libgtk2.0-0 package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.00:16
Wildburnuncategorized:why cant you reboot to recovery?00:16
sebsebsebdrewbert: yeah  IRC is good00:16
sebsebsebfor this kind of stuff00:16
ellanceoAnd reinstalling from scratch isn't exactly a good idea right now00:17
ellanceoHey, it beeped00:17
Gartral1i can't find the package needed to allow gimp to create a SVG file00:17
uncategorizedWildburn: don't have a CD and would rather not create one...seems unneccessary...i should be able to do it from any command line00:17

ellanceoI have school stuff that I NEED tomorrow, or else I basically fail my class completely00:17
ellanceoYup, back to root prompt00:18
DarkKnighti have installed XP in virtualbox....why is it that i can't move my mouse outside the window? can anyone tell me how i can get over this problem00:18
Dr_willisellanceo,  so you can see the terminal/login prompt?00:18
ellanceoWell yeah00:18
crdlbWildburn: what is going to the recover console going to accomplish?00:18
arbitraryGartral1: why do you need to make an SVG in gimp? Can you use inkscape instead?00:18
crdlbrecovery*00:18
Wildburnellanceo:install and use the partitioner to shrink your existing install, then just mount that drive in the new install00:18
sebsebsebDarkKnight: it's right ctrl by default00:18
ellanceoNot login propt00:18
ellanceojust root00:18
ZykoticDarkKnight, right CTRL key will release mouse grab in VirtualBox00:18
Gartral1i don't have inkscape00:18
ellanceoroot@TheThingGreyBox#00:18
Dr_willisellanceo,  you can transfer files to somthing else with that.00:18
uncategorizedso maybe one of you can *almost* do what i did00:19
mezy_is there a way to install ubunfu onto a usb and have it save changes00:19
DarkKnightthank you00:19
ellanceoWell crap.00:19
arbitraryGartral1: Yeah, but its freely available in package manager, etc.00:19
vbabiyShould I use threads or process for this: I will have a process that will need to go out on the network pull some data and send an email. This will not take more then 10seconds, It will need to process about 10,000 results every minute. I also need the works to be disturbed across machines00:19
uncategorizedif you are on intrepid, can you add the jaunty sources and then do apt-get update00:19
uncategorizedand then simulate an install of libgpod400:19
Wildburncrdlb:thought perhaps fix broken packages might reinstall glib from cd00:19
uncategorizedand tell me what packages it is trying to update?00:19
sebsebsebDarkKnight: I beat him to it, but I didn't really explain hummm00:19
ellanceoCould I load a live CD and try and do some work on it there?00:19
sebsebsebyes00:19
ellanceoI'd really want to avoid a full reinstall.00:19
Wildburnellanceo:sure just mount the drive afterwords00:19
sebsebsebyou can access your  installed Ubuntu partition from Live CD00:19
Tonglebeakhi everyone. i have a question. I have 8gb of ram, but for now I only want to use 3gb (due to a wine bug on 64-bit systems). I read that passing the "mem=3G" arg through the kernel boot line in grub would solve this, but my system is still using the full 8gb. what could be wrong? I'm using kernel /boot/kernel/bzImage root=/dev/sda2 mem=3G video=uvesafb:1680x1050-32,mtrr:3,ywrap splash=silent,fadein,theme:livecd-2007.0 quiet CONSOLE=/dev/tty100:19
crdlbuncategorized: what does 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install libgtk2.0-0' say?00:19
ellanceoI've done it at LEAST 10 times since Dapper, and it's getting really unnerving.00:20
vbabiysorry wrong room00:20
Dr_willismezy_,  pendrivelinux.com may have the info/tweaks.. or that ubuntu usb-drive tool can do that.00:20
uncategorizedcrdlb: Reinstallation of libgtk2.0-0 is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.00:20

crdlbuncategorized: how about without the --reinstall?00:20
art_hello i had a question... my computer has been doing this almost daily the screen randomly turns black and the only way to get it back is to restart the computer anyone got any idea how i can fix that00:20
sebsebsebart_:  yes I think so00:21
uncategorizedcrdlb: claims it is already the newest version...but i don't know if that means it is a "version newer than what interpid expects"00:21
Wildburnart:disable screensaver and fade to black00:21
sebsebsebart_:  have you got  screensavers on?00:21
uncategorizedWildburn: no i am going from feisty00:21
sebsebsebif so what wild burn said00:21
arbitraryGartral1: You can save as a postscript in Gimp, this is pretty close to an SVG. But as mentioned earlier, since gimp is a raster editor, the resulting image will not really be a true vector image.00:21
sebsebsebor  put random screensaver00:21
uncategorizedWildburn: errr...i originally installed from edgy00:21
crdlbuncategorized: sudo apt-get intall libgtk2.0-0=2.14.4-0ubuntu100:21
art_i dont think so i can check tho.. where do i check00:21
uncategorizedand have done upgrades since thatn00:21

kcowolfMy friend's Windows install got corrupted somehow (constant bluescreen on bootup).  He has two hard drives in a RAID configuration; any chance he'd be able to read the drives from the Ubuntu LiveCD?00:22
sebsebsebellanceo: wait00:22
EC2-Adamanyone know if i can have more than one ip address associated with one EC2 instance00:22
ellanceoYeah?00:22
ellanceoI00:22
sebsebsebellanceo: it kind of makes sense to do  a reinstall when it's next version, because then you can have Ext4 instead of Ext300:22
ellanceoI've waited for responses for weeks on the forums, it's pathetic the false idea of community on there00:23
ellanceoNext version?00:23
ellanceoExt4?00:23
sebsebsebyes00:23
sebsebsebExt4 as an option Ext3 by default00:23
ellanceoWell yeah, but I didn't even know there was Ext400:23
ellanceoFaster I would assume?00:23
sebsebsebyeah it's a lot faster than Ext300:23
Mike94287I just installed Ubuntu on my other computer and now the sound doesn't work on it, how can I fix it?00:23

art_ok i turned the the screen saver off... what should i do if it happends again tho00:24
sebsebsebellanceo: ,but I can try on someone elses' computer anyway so :D  ,but only try through remote connect00:24
uncategorizedok...about to restart and give this a try00:24
ellanceoI got tired of waiting 4 hours to transfer 50GB to my reiserfs external00:24
crdlbuncategorized: you don't need to restart00:24
uncategorizedcrdlb: just restart gdm?00:24
art_?00:25
sebsebsebellanceo: using a Live CD untill  next release  maybe a bit sucky, but   once the stuff is in RAM  things will be ok00:25
crdlbuncategorized: sure00:25
ellanceoSo is ext4 going to be an included option with 9.04/9.10?00:25
sebsebsebellanceo: or  put Ibex on temporily a clean install. and  then do another clean install of next one or  something00:25
ellanceoOr is it some really long drawn out process that sucks terribly, like most things with linux that are better00:25

ellanceoThey tested EXT4 on a 128GB RAM system? What the hell is that super-power nonsense?00:29
sebsebsebthen something about if   reisterfs  source code is on a reiserfs  partition, that things can really bugger up00:29
ellanceoIs that theoritical RAM or what00:29
Wildburnyeah, cuz we all have one of those00:29
Wildburnart: try updating your sound card drivers?00:29
sebsebseband most distros use Ext3 by default, and there must be a valid reason for that00:29
=== anon is now known as anon__
art_how do i do that00:30
Zykoticart_, if volume works for some sites and not others in Firefox it has to be site specific and not too much can be done if you don't know what sites are affected00:30
uncategorizedcrdlb: now it wants to upgrade to 2.14.4-0ubuntu2 Ubuntu:8.10/intrepid-proposed....that should be okay i presume00:30
crdlbuncategorized: that's fine00:30
crdlbuncategorized: intrepid-proposed contains updates meant for an intrepid system00:30
ellanceoOoooohhh. it's a raid, my bad00:30
art_oh damn00:30
ellanceoThought this was a desktop benchmark00:30
uncategorizedcrdlb: for information purposes, why was it that i couldn't use do:  aptitude reinstall libgtk2.0-0?00:30
crdlbuncategorized: because it was trying to reinstall the package that was installed (2.15.4 from jaunty)00:31
crdlbit was being very literal00:31
ThirtysixwayIs there any form of Ubuntu that will work on an old toshiba laptop with a pentium processor?00:31
uncategorizedcrdlb: i see...yeah i interpreted that command to mean:  reinstall from the current sources.list00:31
Wildburnunliteral linux, that would be a nightmare00:31
crdlbuncategorized: if it had been something less important than gtk, you could have just uninstalled it and installed it again00:31
ellanceoAnyways, thanks again for all the help, I'm gonna poke around and try and get this damn fscking problem to stop :) Take care all!00:31

sebsebsebThirtysixway:   I know a trick to get later versions of Ubuntu  to work with  128MB RAM00:32
Dr_willisDarkKnight,  the 2 machines could use samba/shares to transfer files.. same as with 2 real machines.. or virtualbox guest addations allow the mounting of a 'shared  location directory' from the  host OS/00:33
sebsebsebThirtysixway: and without that trick,  the Live CD won't even boot up on that00:33

WildburnSeb:he might be better off with tinyme or something along those lines00:33
nellmathewhey guys is there anything like "orbit downloader" for ubuntu?.. specifically the grab++ stuff (puts a download link under ANY flv video), or a similar way to do this (without using a network analyzer/packet sniffer)00:33

I have all the volume controls up but my speakers are only producing a faint sound when they are all up. This has never happened before, and has only happened since after i put in an obsolinte USB sound device, which has hence been rem.oved. I can plug head phones into the front ports and get audio just fine but when tr00:34
Thirtysixwaysebsebseb: dapper I believe00:34
sebsebsebThirtysixway: ok if you put a 512MB or so swap partition on the hard disk with the Gparted Live CD.   and then try a later version of Ubuntu,  and assuming the computer has 128MB RAM.  the Live CD should boot up properly.    I am not sure if this trick works with computers that have less than 128MB RAM00:34
jeeves_VIM_, I have Winamp running, but I need a way of sorting through 16,000+ MP3s, and deleting the duplicates00:34
_VIM_winamp can do that00:34

jeeves_VIM_, how?00:34
WildburnThirtysix are you in windows on that system right now?>00:34

jeevesbuzzomatic, the government is watching you.  speak in hushed tones and face away from me when talking00:35
Wildburnseb: yeah thats where I was going with it00:35
Thirtysixwaysebsebseb: okay I can try it.  I may need to go with Xubuntu or something.  But first I'll have to get RAM specs.  The laptops are donated and at a shelter, they're not tech savvy enough to tell me how much ram is on it00:35
_VIM_jeeves: I'd have to check, give me a few mins00:35
buzzomatichoho00:35
sebsebsebThirtysixway: no if you got 128MB RAM,  Ubuntu will work00:35
Thirtysixwaysebsebseb: I don't have one with me right now so I can't check00:35
arbitrarykenny__: depends on the problem :) that is an onboard card...00:35
sebsebsebThirtysixway: later versions, with the trick I just told you about00:35
buzzomaticI mean with my keyboard input getting garbled00:36
jeeves_VIM_, thanks.  all I know is that there are a few in there, and I don't feel like hacking through them one by one00:36
Wildburnseb:yeah but xubuntu would run faster with that low of ram00:36
UncleDDoes the ubuntu php package come with PHP compiled with GD2 support00:36

Titan8990BadHorsie, then yes, try the manual installation of grub, not the "grub-install" method01:36

Titan8990unop, important to many web developers01:37
adantehi guys, am i right in thinking it's straightforward to resize both ext3 and ntfs partitions nowadays? i'm setting up a dual boot system and not giving too much thought to the partition layout, but hoping it will be easy to resize in the future01:37
Wildburnwodkja, you want to run IE to run outlook express?>01:37
ActionParsnip1unop: IE is good for site devs to make sure it renders ok01:37
brandon_how do i get ssh>01:37
brandon_?**01:37
unopwodKja, does OWA not like firefox then? maybe you can fool OWA into thinking firefox is actually IE by changing the user agent string.01:37
Brando753now will i risk my bios jamming if i tri-boot (ubuntu, windows, ubunti server?)01:37
WildburnAction, I am a site dev, but I just run windows on VMware for testing IE01:37
ActionParsnip1brandon_: in terminal type: ssh <username>@<server name or ip>01:38
Titan8990Brando753, grub boots after the BIOS has loaded01:38
RoastedTiresXIs anybody really good with network printing via CUPS with Ubuntu 8.10 (host) to an XP Pro laptop?01:38
LjLadante: i do believe gparted can manage both things... of course a backup would always be a good idea before doing such things01:38
Titan8990Brando753, so no01:38
unopActionParsnip1, and you'd trust IE on linux to render it well ? :) I'll tell you it doesn't - atleast not when I am developing sites01:38
wodKjaYou can run OWA in firefox but only the light version which has awful functionality :[01:38
Brando753relly so now jam possiablity :D SWEET01:38
AETE_KRAOUDwodKja, : yes download tamper data and test the user agent string unitll it works with firefox too :-);)01:38
LjLBrando753: what does your BIOS have to do with that?01:38

BadHorsiehum, I tried export TERM to linux,vt100 even xterm, it starts with bterm, whatever I choose when i do execute grub to find /boot/grub/stage1 It's all deleted/formatted/corrupted from grub :S01:38

Titan8990brandon_, irssi is actually very popular too01:39

brandon_well my friend is going to help me with my server and he sayed something about ssh01:39
Titan8990Brando753, then you can use lilo but I am not sure how it works with dual and tri booting01:39
WildburnActionparsnip: Im with unop on this, better to run dual boot or virtualize for windows if you want to test across browsers01:39
BadHorsieI know it works with dual booting01:39

AETE_KRAOUDmib_90awkb8l, : OK here is another solution02:17

bertolonickrud:  thks  :D02:17
maxagazap-get configure -a or something like that02:17
Titan8990Wildburn, are you sure that card is supported by the proprietary nvidia drivers? I was fairly certain they were only for the geforce series cards02:17
AETE_KRAOUDmib_90awkb8l, : then unistall synaptic and reinstall it from adept manager02:17
Wildburnchelz:Ive tried download drivers with hardware drivers applet, tried going through synaptic, tried download direct from Nvidia and installing02:18
chelzWildburn: the automatic tools has always worked for me. i'd backup your xorg.conf and try it if you haven't02:18

mib_90awkb8lAETE_KRAOUDwait, apt-get configure -a isnt the right command is it? sorry, im new with linux so i need the exact command...02:20
Wildburnthird time you search guy installs them with directions on that page02:20
cjaeusser: what I can't figure out is why /boot gets installed beyond sector 102302:20
AETE_KRAOUDmib_90awkb8l, :  do do what ?02:20
mib_90awkb8lto install an application02:21
ussercjae, its not that fine tuned, once you allocated spaced, filesystem decides where to put stuff02:21
cjaeusser: by default02:21
mib_90awkb8ladebt manager02:21
Wildburnthing is the second I add anything to xorg.conf even things not relating to the Driver "nvidia" I get a black screen02:21
AETE_KRAOUDmib_90awkb8l, : no is apt -get install MYAPP02:21
AETE_KRAOUDmib_90awkb8l, : exactly --> apt-get install MYAPP02:21
Titan8990Wildburn, have you considered just using the open source nvidia drivers?02:21
Daremohello02:21
WildburnTitan, no 3d accel on the nv drivers02:22
ussercjae, and its usually not /boot that matters, /boot can be anywhere on the harddrive really, its the bootloader that spits that error, and bootloader is a small portion of code residing in the mbr or first 1023 sectors of a partition02:22
C-S-Bdon't configure nvidia yourself, get envy02:22
Titan8990Wildburn, I actually can't find any information about that card in the nvidia website, other than the fact that it was there first mobile graphics chip02:22
Daremolooking for a little help with ati 9200/9250 and compiz02:22
ussercjae, but yea its really weird that it did manage to install itself way off limits02:22
Daremorunning intrepid02:22
WildburnTitan, youd have to look in the supported devices list to find that its supported by the 96.43.xx series drivers02:22
adantehi guys i am trying to boot the 8.10 livecd - it gives me a "ACPI: Aborted because crc error" and then kernel panic and the system freezes - i tried booting the livecd with noacpi but it still does this02:22
adantehow can i install ubuntu?02:23
cjaeusser: grub looks for /boot so is important02:23
Titan8990adante, you should use acpi=off02:23
TuX_hey02:23
_VIM_!install | adante02:23
ubottuadante: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation.  Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - see also !automate02:23

vadi2How can I run a script that uses sudo at gnome session start automatically, without asking for password the second time?02:24
ussercjae, well did you try the suggested fix, ie create a separate boot partition in the beginning of the drive02:24
Titan8990adante, you may have been thinking of noapic02:24
naddixhow can i make ics stick after restart02:24
usservadi2, sudo visudo02:24
usservadi2, add the command that you dont want to prompted the password for02:25
Daremoanyone good with the open source video drivers for ATI rv280 chipset?02:25
mib_90awkb8lok its installing. so when its done, i uninstall synaptic and reinstall it?02:25
Daremoand compiz?02:25
vadi2usser: oh? ok, going to try it02:25
cjaeusser: can you tell what sector your /boot was installed too02:25
AETE_KRAOUDmib_90awkb8l, : yes what else ?02:25
usservadi2, something like ALL ALL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown02:25
mib_90awkb8ljust checking02:25
vadi2usser: how do they work together02:25
ussercjae, i just don't know, the only thing i know is my /boot is not on a separate partition and my grub is in mbr02:26
vadi2if lets say I just need to run script.sh at start to fix my webcam02:26
vadi2sudo visudo script.sh ?02:26
cjaeusser: so I can see if a reinstall is necessary cause I would like to know if this is going to happen on all machines I want to install on02:26
usservadi2, ALL ALL = NOPASSWD: /blah/path/script.sh02:26
AETE_KRAOUDmib_90awkb8l, : it should be ok after that because your synaptic didn't have some conf file so now it will might have one as normal02:26
vadi2usser: alright02:26
usservadi2, visudo just a safe way to edit /etc/sudoers file which is responsible for granting permissions02:26
Titan8990vadi2, its more appropriate to not include sudo in the script and require sudo to be used to execute it02:26
Titan8990vadi2, sudo /path/to/my/script02:27
vadi2oh, so I add that line to the file?02:27
vadi2and then do sudo script.sh?02:27
Titan8990vadi2, no....02:27
vadi2I need to run this script auto without asking for password02:27
ussercjae, your setup is pretty normal, most common in fact, im not sure what went wrong, maybe the bios IS involved somehow, i did hundreds installations with pretty much the same settings02:27
Daremoshould i be in a different channel for video card questions?02:27
ussercjae, are you using RAID?02:27
cjaeusser: the ubuntu installer should not install /boot beyond 1023 though right, I wish to not a /boot first if it is just a installer02:27
cjaeusser: problem02:28
cjaeusser: no02:28
Titan8990vadi2, auto, as in cron?02:28
vadi2Titan8990: as in gnome session02:28
Blastlinny1; you dont need to be a dick man02:28
vadi2Titan8990: or when webcam is plugged in really.02:28
Nom-Howdy all.  Should be a quick question.  Is there a simple command line option which can suppress the ubuntu debchange behaviour of adding -ubuntuX to the end of changelog versions?02:28
Titan8990vadi2, does the script load a module?02:28
AETE_KRAOUDvadi2, : so you need it's time you plagg the webcam e?02:29
vadi2Titan8990: no, it just does something like "sudo mv /dev/video0 /dev/video1"02:29
ussercjae, i wouldn't know why it did it. But really try a separate /boot partition. its a good practice anyway. too bad ubuntu thinks otherwise02:29
Gosujii-samaquick question about router linksys i need to know someone that knows how to configure it for iroffer n such since i thought i had it right still didnt work02:29

cjaeusser: thats probably what I m going to have to do02:30
AETE_KRAOUDvadi2, : have you tried to search skype forums etc ?02:30
AETE_KRAOUDvadi2, : just asking02:30
vadi2AETE_KRAOUD: yes, and I have it working... I just need to run this script as root now02:31
Daremoneed some help trying to run compiz02:31
vadi2AETE_KRAOUD: and it all works fine. But I'm unable to run it as root02:31
Gosujii-samacjae, alot of people use like 8 different partitions for it /boot /usr/bin and such including /home02:31
vadi2without being root02:31
ljt1有中国人么02:31
AETE_KRAOUDvadi2, : hmmm i ithink i know why02:31
Titan8990vadi2, what you would want to do is add mv to nopassword to /etc/sudoers, but I honestly don't recommend it02:31
Titan8990vadi2, it sounds to me like you are working around a problem instead of solving it02:31
usservadi2, try modifying sudoers file. thats exactly what you're asking for02:31
AETE_KRAOUDvadi2, : i think you need to log in to a shell as a root02:31
usserTitan8990, yep02:32
mikeshollendoes anyone know what program allows you to install usplash screens with a gui window instead of terminal commands?02:32
cjaeGosujii-sama: right, I lots partition for /var due to the size of logs02:32
vadi2Titan8990: yes, I am... what else to do02:32
ussermikeshollen, startupmanager02:32
AETE_KRAOUDvadi2, : not sudo command but su root and then type your root password02:32
vadi2I just need it to work02:32
Gosujii-samacjae, yep alot of people do that02:32
ronin_ubuntu is sticking while doing a routine check of drives.. it gets stuck at the same % each time02:32
mikeshollenusser: that's exactly what I was trying to remember, thank you so much02:32
ZykoticDaremo I'm no expert with ATI, only use Nvidia myself, do you have Direct Rendering right now?  "glxinfo | grep direct"02:32
Daremohello?02:32
vadi2ok I'll give that a try :) bbl02:32
Daremoyes02:32
Gosujii-samacjae, so partitioning your root is nothing new most do it02:32
usserAETE_KRAOUD, thats not what he wants, he wants root priviliges for a script without typing his password02:32
AETE_KRAOUDvadi2, : and then you will be the real root user not fake sudoer one02:32
vadi2AETE_KRAOUD: what do you mean02:33
Daremoyes i do Zykotic02:33
vadi2I need to run this script without asking for a password02:33
Gosujii-samacjae, i saw a doc somewhere where someone had 10 partitions for a windows/linux split02:33
AETE_KRAOUDusser, : hmmm ok know i know02:33
Zykoticmikeshollen, are you using Intrepid?  if so there are almost no available usplash themes...  I don't know of a GUI02:33
cjaeGosujii-sama: I am wondering why a default ubuntu install would think it is good idea that it put /boot beyond sector 1023 of sda102:33
ussermikeshollen, no problem02:33
ZykoticDaremo, and what happens if you enable compiz?02:33
Gosujii-samacjae, i couldnt answer that i would have though it would be sector 102:33
Daremoi tried to look up if the 9250 is blacklisted, and i dont think so, but man finding info is so hard sometimes.02:33
Gosujii-samacjae, actually i can02:33
Gosujii-samacjae, it does that from what i understand because of filesystems02:34
AETE_KRAOUDvadi2, : so you need to make a link of the executable you use in the script to the usr/local/bin folder where there is not needed any root priveleges02:34
vadi2AETE_KRAOUD: oh? thanks02:34
Daremoi enable compiz by going to appearance/visual effects tab and select Extra right?02:34
AETE_KRAOUDvadi2, : but this is sometimes not recomended for security reasons :-)02:34
vadi2AETE_KRAOUD: Yeah understandable02:34
ZykoticDaremo, that works02:34
tiyowanDaremo, correct.02:34
AETE_KRAOUDvadi2, : so keep in mind that :-)02:34
Gosujii-samacjae, the first section is your filesystem02:34

cjaeGosujii-sama: ext 302:36
usservadi2, what are you trying to run exactly? there are places to add system-wide boot up scripts besides gnome-sessions02:36

AETE_KRAOUDmib_90awkb8l,  : my final idea to find the unistalled file03:01
Daremoso does that mean if i want to run compiz, i would either have to switch to low resolutions on the screens? or run one monitor?03:01

usserbananagun, first off you cant mount entire hdd, it has to be a partition /dev/sdc1 for example03:43
ahecklerstorbeck: i saw that earlier, but i dont think it has special instructions for vista fonts03:43
Titan8990Bakefy, but fdisk only creates partitions, does not format like gparted, to format you will want to do:   mke2fs -j /dev/sdxx03:44

ibuclawJosephLinkous: for source-built applications, you can create deb packages out of them. or use the application 'checkinstall'04:02
JosephLinkoususser: I didn't even think about that being a possibility... although it's obvious now, lol.04:02
Zykoticzombine, e2label04:02
Titan8990JosephLinkous, source built applications will typically need to be manually uninstalled, which is why they are not recommended04:02
max_Bakefy: good job :)04:02

Titan8990JosephLinkous, unless you make a .deb out of the them like ibuclaw mentioned04:02

JosephLinkousTitan8990: For instance, I'm looking for the ability to compile code for embedded applications, and the .deb links are broken. The only things available are the source files04:04
ibuclawJosephLinkous: what I tend to do is add the latest testing release to my sources list, and pin it at a very low number so no binary packages are upgraded. Then pull the sources and run 'dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot'04:04
_VIM_konversation is  X yeah.04:04

aeonsablazei've always preferred nano to vim04:07

bananagunemacs...04:07
RenatoSilvais Ubuntu based on debian lenny?04:07
max_yes04:07
kriscoltwhat about joe?04:07
_VIM_vim is sweet , with all the extras,,, im not too crazy about straight vi...04:07
heffayRenatoSilva, ubuntu is based on debian and lenny is a version of debian04:07
max_right04:07
usserbananagun, you sure you have the right initrd file04:07
Titan8990RenatoSilva, ubuntu releases are always based on the debian release canditidate04:07
JosephLinkousibuclaw: Oh nice. What's the difference between a .deb and make install? Everything in one convenient file instead of a whole folder of crap, or what?04:07
RenatoSilvaheffay: really?04:07
kriscoltmother F'er! new mexico state lost!04:07
Titan8990RenatoSilva, not the current debian release04:07

RenatoSilvaheffay: look at Titan8990 answering04:08
_VIM_you got a potty mouth kriscolt O.o :P04:08
bananagunusser: no, but I do see an initrd.img.. I'll change it to that. Is that the only thing you see wrong?04:08
RenatoSilvaTitan8990: thanks!04:08
heffayRenatoSilva, youre the one asking the questions04:08
kriscolttoo much coffee... not enough food04:08
setuidAnyone know?04:08
usserbananagun, you see something like that in /boot initrd.img-2.6.28-8-generic?04:08
JosephLinkousibuclaw: Oh, so if you got it straight from the net and installed from .deb, it would register itself with aptitude in the installed apps section for easy removal, or what?04:09
mediadragonI screwed up and installed a new driver for my nvidia built in.04:09
RenatoSilvaTitan8990: so now it's time for a new debian from which to be based....04:09
heffaysigh04:09
mediadragonHow do I get it back to the correct driver?04:10
usserbananagun, but yea seems fine04:10
RenatoSilvaTitan8990: do you think 9.04 will already be based on debian 6.0?04:10
ibuclawJosephLinkous: yes, that is how the debian package management system works. it's there so you have full control and knowledge of what is on your machine :)04:10
usserbananagun, might also try root=UUID=UUID of your linux partition04:10
kriscoltthere was a reason i came in here...04:10
usserbananagun, use blkid on the live cd to find out what it is04:10
kriscolt...?04:10
Wildburnhm anyone know a command to get your screen data?04:10
bananagunusser: yes, it is initrd.img-2.6.27-7-generic my bad. I'll try blkid now04:11
RenatoSilvawill 9.04 will be based on debian 6.0?04:11

max_Wildburn: are you talking about the utility "screen"04:11
usserbananagun, also kernel vmlinuz-2.6.28-8-generic or something similar04:11
JosephLinkousibuclaw: Freakin sweet. I'll have to paste that command to a file for future reference04:11
bananagunusser: blkid returns: /dev/sdc2: UUID="cd37fc3c-6802-4036-a139-cc4c1308cc63" TYPE="ext3"04:11
Wildburnmax_: not sure, was getting black screen before so instead of booting 2.24.27-12 or whatever I booted the -7 kernel and then It gives me low res, no configuration, so I look at Xorg.0.log and it says no screens configured properly04:12
usserbananagun, yep so root=UUID=cd37fc3c-6802-4036-a139-cc4c1308cc63 in the kernel line04:12
RenatoSilva.04:12
Titan8990RenatoSilva, unsure04:12
moddey_dhooSo my question is this: Does anyone have any idea why my programs act funny after closing rhythmbox, firefox, ubuntu's default pdf reader, etc? I can't open Firefox now, I can't click the button to bring up restart/shutdown, I can't open gedit, so I'm pretty much stuck with whatever programs I have open.04:13
Titan8990RenatoSilva, if debian 6.0 is already in development, I would say maybe04:13
max_Wildburn: oh, I was talking about somethign else. What data do you want specifically?04:13
Titan8990RenatoSilva, although I doubt that it is since 5.0 was just released04:13
thesleepingoxthis happens when i tried sudo istall xserver-xgl04:13
JosephLinkousAnyone have a link to a 'best practices' page for Linux/Ubuntu?04:13
thesleepingoxPackage xserver-xgl is not available, but is referred to by another package.04:13
thesleepingoxThis may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or04:13
thesleepingoxis only available from another source04:13
Wildburnmax_:id assume things like refresh, pci location and so on04:13
sumahai04:14
max_Wildburn: sorry, I'm not following at all ><. Maybe I should let someone else take a stab04:14
thesleepingoxhow do i get the xerver-??04:14
Wildburnmax_:basically the items related to screen that go in xorg.conf04:14
bananagunusser: just to make sure, the whole line would be "kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-7-generic root=UUID=cd37fc3c-6802-4036-a139-cc4c1308cc63 ro vga=normal"?04:15
max_Wildburn: you want to see yours or you want the right ones to put in xorg.conf?04:15
Wildburnboth04:15
WildburnI need to see the data for my screen so I can put it in xorg.conf there isnt anything in there for screen right now04:15
max_well, xorg.conf is just a text file, so open it up with your favorite text editor to see that04:15
usserbananagun, yes as long as you're sure about those names and UUID04:15

victoriahi, anyone using xubuntu? xfce?04:17
RenatoSilvaTitan8990: debian 6 (Squeeze) came out from unstable to testing because 5.0 came out to stable04:17
bananagunusser: Ok I'll be back in a minute to let you know how it went :) thanks again for your help!04:17

Titan8990RenatoSilva, then I would say, most likely, but could not say for sure04:17
RenatoSilvaTitan8990: ok thanks04:18
Wildburnmax_:actually running nvidia-xconfig has given me a few items, still seem to be missing the pci address though04:18
JosephLinkousAlright, one final question, though I'm sure you guys will gasp. I want to open my server to the public.04:18
Titan8990RenatoSilva, basically, if you want more bleeding edge, ubuntu is the choice, if you want more stability, get debian.....04:18
RenatoSilvaTitan8990: I already use ubuntu04:18
JosephLinkousWhat kinds of things would I need to keep in mind to keep things secure?04:18
max_Wildburn: yeah, that's a great app. Why do you need that address?04:18
Wildburnmax_:assume I do since Xorg.0.log says it cant find a display04:19
max_JosephLinkous: definitely learn how to use iptables04:19
JosephLinkousI have nothing mission critical on here, I just want to see people come on and fk around all they want, yet the server stays running normally04:19

Wildburnyeah, ill give it a whack, didnt see it when I tried it earlier04:21
_VIM_JosephLinkous: donno about "odd" really, it sounded liked a decent question to me.04:21
max_Wildburn: I wouldn't run after that information for too long :P. I think you just need to tweak your xorg.conf to be what it should.04:21
julio_hi, do you know how to get the modifiable kernel variables?04:21

slimchefapril: trying to get dual displays working. vantrax: no, infact installed the driver. beachboy: no edit04:57
ZykoticK9beachboy4231, i don't know about vsftp, but usually you just create a regular user, same as a local (for security you can set their shell to none)04:57
trentonwell iv been trying to get on irc.rizon.net cuz i havent been on there in a while and apparently i cant04:57

ZykoticK9portablefarhan, just say what your problem is05:11

portablefarhanrunning virtualbox-ose with vboxgtk I installed windows xp in a machine and my arrow keys are all messed up05:12
crdlbGuest58224: well, all it did was copy files onto your system; so to undo it, you have to find an uninstall action in the script05:12
portablefarhanI can fix it in vmware server but I like virtualbox better05:12

kriscoltcan anyone help clean up my apt sources.list?05:13
kriscolti'm not quite sure what i did to myself05:13
portablefarhanI think it has something to do with the x-erver and other things that I am not knowledgeable about05:13
ZykoticK9portablefarhan, so the keys in the VM are messed up or on your Host?05:14
silv3r_m00nwill the repositories of say.. 8.04 be updated after the support period is over ?05:14
portablefarhanin the vm they are messed up05:14
Guest58224crdlb  : Like this "sh ioquake3-1.34-rc3.run --uninstall" ?05:14
portablefarhanlike the down arrow key is the windows key05:14
portablefarhanit happened in vmware server too but I found a fix for that,05:14
ZykoticK9portablefarhan, ? i've used VirtualBox to install many copies of Windows, never had that problem.  But I'd guess it's something to do with Windows not having the right keyboard selected/installed...  sorry not more help.05:15

williamchan_hi - does anyone know of a distributed file system that is self aware? ie. if there are 500 nodes of 7200rpm drives and 500 nodes of 5400rpm drives, it knows how to smartly place/mirror files efficiently05:44

soodhey is it possible to change my nick name on IRC ?05:48
IntoxicKatYeah!05:48
williamchan_sood: /nick yournick05:48
Titan8990suzao, most likely it is not due to your lack of resolutions in xorg, but the graphics driver that you are using05:48
cuddlefishsood: /nick05:48
Vantrax|Worksood do a /nick <name>05:48
earthsoundis there a way to pause the repository/package update window (or view a log) to see what is failing and what is updating properly?05:48
Titan8990suzao, there are limitations to the vesa driver which is the fallback driver05:48
Vantrax|Workearthsound, easiest way is to use the terminal to install by typing sudo apt-get install <package name>05:49
Titan8990earthsound, in order to do that, you should run the updater from the command line05:49
Titan8990earthsound, sudo aptitude full-upgrade05:49
soodthx williamcham05:49

Vantrax|Workearthsound are you downloading from the ubuntu main repository? and if so what version of ubuntu05:51

dreamyi mean will it be the same has installing the ubuntu studio cd ....05:54
crdlbdreamy: I believe so; you may need to switch kernels though (I think ubuntustudio uses linux-rt by default)05:54
dreamy:S ok...:(05:54
archersevendreamy:  it's similar, i've actually heard that installing studio through the package is better, it updates better.05:55

dreamyjust one simple question.. why do i realy need to install "U studio" cant i run any application at my choice with normal ubuntu?05:56
^law^guys how 2 get list of services from terminal?05:56
=== williamchan_ is now known as aznium
Flanneldreamy: Yep.05:57
Titan8990^law^, "services" per say, is a windows thing05:57
dreamyhmm...05:57
^law^daemons05:57
Titan8990^law^, ps aux05:57
archersevendreamy: yes, studio just makes them easier, i ran studio before i switched to mint, i liked it having everything... kinda nice, but i do a lot of audio work.05:58
Titan8990^law^, the closest thing linux has to services:  ls -l /etc/init.d05:58
suzaoTitan8990: I just want the correct resolution & prefer to be able to use 3D hardware also.05:58
ZykoticK9^law^, "ps aux" shows you everything that's running, not just daemons05:58
^law^i want to know whic services that started automatically05:58
dreamyokey archerseven05:58
Titan8990^law^, then ls -l /etc/init.d05:58
^law^from terminal wat command should i invoke?05:58
Titan8990^law^, as long as you haven't removed any via update-rc05:59
^law^i just fresh installed05:59
Titan8990suzao, did you install proprietary graphics driver via the restricted hardware manager?05:59
Titan8990^law^, then the command I gave should be fine06:00
lachybushello world06:00
^law^ok thx :)06:00
^law^r all services in init.d is started during OS start up?06:01
Titan8990^law^, yes, by default06:02
^law^then how i know if a service is running or not?06:02
Titan8990^law^, then System -> Preferences -> Sessions   are executed on start up06:02
Titan8990^law^, ps aux | grep 'service'06:03
Titan8990^law^, sorry meant that sessions are executed on LOG IN....06:03
^law^Titan8990, ps aux | grep 'service doesn't list up any services06:04
Titan8990^law^, replace 'service' with the process that you are looking for06:05
ZykoticK9^law^, the 'service' is a variable, input what your looking for06:05
^law^i knw tat i have samba tat running now06:05
Titan8990^law^, then:   ps aux | grep 'samba'06:05
Titan8990^law^, for more info:   man grep   and    man grep06:06
ZykoticK9Titan8990, ^law^ i think samba is actually smbd isn't it?06:06
Titan8990^law^, ehh sorry one of those should have read   man ps06:06
^law^but i wanna list all services tat g currently running06:06
^law^but i wanna list all services that  currently running06:06
^law^ZykoticK9, ya06:07
Titan8990^law^, and ZykoticK9 is correct, the samba daemon is smbd06:07

paulSterioI've tried apt-get install gcc06:27

Titan8990paulSterio, what is your problem exactly?06:28
DigitalKiwipeople compile stuff on ubuntu?06:28
Titan8990DigitalKiwi, they do, but its not recommended06:28
nilsonLol, people compile stuff on every distro06:28
nickrudDigitalKiwi, nah, all the dev's do their development on fedora06:28
Titan8990DigitalKiwi, also, people write their own code06:28
nilsonWhy would it not be recommended?06:28
DigitalKiwiI knew it!06:28
nilsonThat doesn't make sense.06:28
DigitalKiwiif I was an ubuntu dev I'd use fedora06:29
DigitalKiwi*nod806:29
DigitalKiwi*06:29
Antiochlol why?06:29
nickrudnilson, more a matter of encouraging people to use the packager06:29
ZykoticK9nilson, if you manually compile install there is no package management, so it's hard to uninstall/update/etc...06:29
nilsonI understand that, but I thgouth you meant against compiling in general06:29
AntiochI compile things on Ubuntu all the time. C, C++, C#, Java (if you consider the last two "compiled")06:29
homecablewhats the most used webserver ?06:29
homecableapache2206:29
nilsonI have to compile obscure research software at work all day :)06:29
Titan8990nilson, becuase A) its harder to uninstall programs that have been compiled from source B) it can cause conflicts with people who try to compile programs from source prior to removing versions they have got from the repos06:29
Titan8990homecable, netcraft.com06:30
Neverbhow is utility, forces readline input named?06:30
nilsonYeah I always try to use the package manager on my distro06:30
nilsonI don't work with software that exists in software repos though :P06:30
Antiochyou could compile & build your own package before installing it06:31
Antiochthen you'd be able to remove it and upgrade it safely06:31
Antioch;)06:31
crdlba better idea is to use /opt/somedir for the prefix06:31
Titan8990nilson, then maybe ubuntu is not the best choice?06:31
paulSterioAntioch,  ok took your advice to build-essential. I'm still getting this gcc issue when I try and easy_install reportlab06:31
paulSteriohttp://dpaste.com/5050/06:31
nickrudTitan8990, there's nothing wrong with using ubuntu as a developement platform06:31
oh_noesTitan8990: no, theres two versions, linux and windows.  ANd by vanilla kernel, I meant whatever Ubuntu 8.10 Server installed off the CD06:31
nilsonThat's true, I need to look into building RPMs. Titan8990, no it's a RHEL system at work. I thought originally that you were against using Ubuntu for compiling in general; not neccesarily to install software in this manager06:32
paulSteriowhy is it doing this on ubuntu 8.10?06:32
Ademandoes anyone know how I could run a process after a given amount of idle time? (as root) is that something i could do via upstart?06:32
AntiochNot loading, but I'll bet there's some package xyz-dev youre missing06:32
crdlbpaulSterio: heh, because you don't have python-dev :)06:32
Antiochor some lib-dev06:32
AntiochThere ya go!06:33
Titan8990oh_noes, and both versions only contain documentation for windows?06:33
AntiochToo bad dpaste isnt loading for me or I woulda beat you to it!06:33
crdlbthe first line "error: Python.h: No such file or directory" is your clue06:33
FlannelpaulSterio: Looks like you're missing a dev fil for python06:33
ZykoticK9Ademan, look into the "sleep" command06:33
paulSterioare you serious06:33
nickrudpaulSterio, I think you need python-dev06:33
paulSterioyea I've already started the process06:34
ZykoticK9Ademan, sorry think i misinterpreted the question06:34

ubottunilson: Jaunty Jackalope is the code for Ubuntu 9.04, due April 2009 - Lots of breakage between now and April - Please join #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support.06:34
Titan8990nickrud, as for development its fine, but if you plan on installing lots of programs from source in order to use them, ubuntu would not be my recommendation06:34
rwwnilson: enjoy your lots of breakage!06:34
nilsonI like it06:34
nilsonlol06:34
AntiochpaulSterio, That's the first thing to check when building something new. Make sure you've got the right libraries and dev pacakges :)06:34
nilsonI've been using Jaunty for a while now06:35
oh_noesTitan8990:  I guess so.  The Windows versions comes with ovftools.exe06:35
oh_noesso the version i have is right06:35
nickrudTitan8990, not a problem; I would myself. nice tools for packaging up whatever I compile, or fooling the packaging system into using my versions if needed06:35
paulSterioyea but where did it tell you that you needed python-dev?06:35
paulSterionope06:35
paulSteriostill got the same error06:36
Titan8990oh_noes, my only suggestion would be to try adding that directory to your path06:36
AntiochWell it said it was missing python.h - which is a piece of source code (a header file for a library)06:36
nickrudpaulSterio, it asked for Python.h ; try python2.5-dev06:36
crdlbpaulSterio: python-dev is what provides the python development headers06:36
Titan8990oh_noes, but only temporarily06:36
nickrudpaulSterio, what I did was apt-file search Python.h . the apt-file package helps find what package a file is in06:37

aprilhareoh and null. but i assumed null bad.06:40
Seperaprilhare: I believe the default for Intrepid is now pulse06:40
aprilhareSeper: thanks that's what i last set thou :)06:41
Seperaprilhare: I would try each of them in turn and simply reboot the vbox, since here are only 3 choices.06:41

aprilhareactually i think i've chosen all three by now06:42
Seperaprilhare: If it makes no sound on any of the choices, then I would reset it to pulse or alsa, and look to see if I could find a prob with solaris.06:42
ChaorainAlso which  is best for full screen games? Gnome, KDE, or XFCE?06:42
aprilhareSeper: oh there are plenty of problems with solaris but i must learn :) thanks anyway06:42
=== ivanoats|away is now known as ivanoats
Seperaprilhare: Setting my programs to Alsa seems to often work as good or better than setting to pulse. fyi06:43
Seperaprilhare: That's just my personal experience06:43
SeperChaorain: The only real difference is the amount of RAM they consume while loaded.06:44
SeperChaorain: If you want a real noticeable improvement, you might have to use something like fluxbox06:45
ChaorainSeper, So how much ram do they use? about. like KDE > Gnome > XFCE06:46
SeperI can't say for sure, but that looks like it's about right.06:46

SkyNetMasterhi, I run on thinkpad laptop and each time it has been off (suspended, hibernated etc) the brightness drops to half. and I have to restore them manually, how do I fix brightness permanently?07:02

ikoniatreboko: I'd suggest trying to put your problem images in /usr/share/compiz to see if they are picked up, that way you know if there is a problem with compiz or the actual image08:33

kalakouentinhello, the removal of a programma that was originally install using a .gz through the standard procedure "/configure, make, make install " does it involves something else than the obvious rm of the file in /bin and in /home/username when the original .gz is deleted and "make uninstall" isn't a option?12:07

Sepersky_: Well, that doesn't seem good then. :\15:58
KDB9000DarkKnight, ok, well I don't think your username is your and the shared is in you/folder. so you need to add your own stuff in. or use the GUI and edit the settings of XP. you can point it to your share from there. also make sure you have a network adapter set up and it works inside with XP15:58

archmansipior: I'm running 2.6.27-13 now, so I want that and ...-12 to be the entries in boot loader. I don't want to see others.16:05
KDB9000DarkKnight, the guest additionals. When you start the virtual machine, under device at the bottom is "Install additional". once Windows is up, click that and it will act like there is a CD in the drive. install execute the install and it will install drivers for your VGA, network, sound, etc... and make it seamless (meaning you can move your mouse in and out of the Virtual machine without using the host button)16:05
archmanGnea: oh, sorry...true.16:05
Sepersky_: type: ls ~/*ogg*16:05
erUSULarchman: what's the prblem?16:05
sipiorarchman: you can uninstall the older kernels via your package management interface of choice, and the old entries will be removed.16:05
sky_seper: same phrase16:06
ZitchDoghey... i need some help, I am trying to change file permissions for only directories in a path using "find path -type d | chmod 755" but it messes up on directories with spaces in their names... how do i handle directories with spaces in their names?16:06
Gneasky_: you might prefer this one:  ls ~/*.ogg  or  find ~ -name "*.ogg"16:06
wh4vnanonymouse1112: no change16:06

wh4vnanonymouse1112: maybe there is something'16:06
sky_Seper: i am root :-X16:06
sipiorarchman: sure, but be careful that you have at least one bootable kernel :-)16:07
wh4vnanonymouse1112: what? I cannt understand16:07
storbeckZitchDog: for file in `find / -type d`; do chmod 755 "$file"; done16:07
anonymous1112wh4vn: well, my skype wasnt working until i unchecked that box and turned the levels up16:07
anonymous1112wh4vn: then it decided to work fine16:07
Sepersky_: root can't access /root/?16:07
archmansipior: why then autoremove did not suggested to remove 'em?16:07
ZitchDogthanks storbeck16:07
erUSULarchman: is safe you only need one installed (the last one) but is not a bad idea to keep one extra just in case you mess something installing third party drivers or whatever16:07
storbecknp16:07
sky_Seper: thats funny :D16:07
Sepersky_: type as regular user: ls ~/*ogg*16:08
KDB9000DarkKnight, ok, I am guessing that is the problem. You don't have the drivers for your virtual network card so it doesn't work. installing the additionals and restarting should make everything work. then do the windows command to add the share16:08
sipiorarchman: older kernels are retained by default. it's good practise to keep known good kernels around, in case a kernel update causes problems.16:08
wh4vnanonymouse1112: turn the levels up? What does it mean?16:08
Sepersky_: I assume your not running your desktop as root? or are you?16:08
sky_Seper: ls: cannot access /home/sky/*ogg*: No such file or directory16:08

anonymous1112trolling is when you intentionally incite peoples anger16:10
archmanWell, I'm not sure anymore now...cause I've spoken with some guy here, that is also an expert, don't remember his name, but he said that if the autoremove didn't offer them for removal, they might be used by hardware or some stuff...16:10
archmanerUSUL, sorry again, forgot to address ;)16:10
sky__VIM_: :o)16:10

Joker_-_sipior: My choice of swapping boxes is based on "troughput" of the machines. I was testing some other of my servers and figured that the AMD Athlon XP 2600+ was weaker than a P4 1.8, so I was wondering why. I know it's clocked slower but it's supposed to be the equivalent of a 2600mhz from INTEL since it does more operations per cycles.16:18

berkesor ~/name.pdf, ~ is an alias for your hoedir torsten16:47

unr3a1didnt see the ~ before, berkes.  nice catch16:48
sipiornooblyalmostid: what are the permissions of /usr/sbin/pppd?16:48
brantPadraig, it depends on your needs.  :) I'm sure each has its advantage and disadvantages16:48
berkestorsten_: try "ls" first. to see if the file is there?16:48
theholyduckberkes, well over 3gb free memory16:48
PadraigBrant: Just general desktop use/programming.16:48
Padraigalso, is there C# support?16:49
brantPadraig, the difference is probably somewhat nominal. There is good C# support16:49

ubottuError: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)16:50
sipiornooblyalmostid: you can set the setuid bit with "sudo chmod u+s /usr/sbin/pppd". understand however that that has some (probably minor) consequences for the security of your system.16:50
torsten_the file is not corrupt16:50
sipiornooblyalmostid: no execute for dip?16:50
torsten_it works on windows16:50
branttheholyduck, maybe, :) Ubuntu releases a bit more often though, and is more up to date unless I use the unstable repositories in debian16:51
torsten_berkes, now it shows me pdf file ver 1.416:51
theholyduckbrant, i always use unstable16:51
berkesokay. lets try again: how do I get gedit to recognise my .module files as PHP? Currently it puts the syntax highlight wrong on em, and the symbolviewer stays empty.16:51
theholyduckbrant, the nice thing about unstable is that you have a free ticket to ignore packaging standards and everything16:51
brantlol16:52
JEEBczlol16:52
theholyduckbecause by being good enough to use it. you also know how to break and fix anything at will16:52
theholyduckthus i can build static ffmpeg packages. and what not16:52
nooblyalmostid:sipior: I do not know how to tell if it has execute for dip?16:52
PadraigWhat about developing applications, like, is there an SDK, like Visual Studio16:52
Padraig?16:52
sipiornooblyalmostid: by way of comparison, these are the default permissions: -rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 313600 2007-10-04 22:48 /usr/sbin/pppd16:52
berkestorsten_: good. At least it /is/ pdf. However, I am not particular fan of okular on KDE4. IT crashed on me waaaayy too often. Did you try another pdf-viewer?16:52
brantberkes, view ---> highlight mode ---> scripts ---> php16:52
brantPadraig, there is monodevelop16:52
brantwhich has a graphical editor16:53
torsten_im now installing every pdf viewer there is in my menu16:53
brantvery nice16:53
sipiornooblyalmostid: you're looking for an "x" in position 7 of the permission list16:53
torsten_maybe it works16:53
berkesbrant: sure. But its annopying to do that 80 times per day :)16:53
Titan8990Padraig, monodevelop, EMACs, VIM, Geany, Eclipse    --- take your pick16:53

sipiornooblyalmostid: try a "sudo chown root /usr/sbin/pppd"16:55

jedi06when there is an exception is it common to send it to a server so you can try to fix it?16:57
nooblyalmostid:sipior: ok16:57

ray_rayok i have a network manager problem. This problem is currently that nm refuses to work at home but works fine at university? I'm running with Intel Corporation PRO/100 VE Network Connection (rev 02) anyone have an idea?20:30
adi1i cant see any video format when in all ok with audio format20:30
tonyyarussoadi1: like a program closes type crash, or it just won't play?20:30
adi1what can I do?20:30
adi1thanks20:30
ActionParsnipLjL: looks like the remote you have sucks for linux20:30
LjLActionParsnip: also, it gets on my nerves that it it *somehow* recognized. if it didn't recognize it at all, and google confirmed it's not supported, then ok20:30
adi1it crash and it closes itself20:30
natschilhi, does anyone know how I can mount a virtualbox harddrive? I have an instance of ubuntu running on virtualbox with a sample server on it, which has some files I would like to get (I am looking for a way that doesn't require me to actually run the image)20:30
=== Dompie is now known as Do-m-pie
adi1very fast just after i upload the viddeo20:31
=== sanjud is now known as n8tuser
adi1it happens in vlc too so i think is some decoder issue20:31
ZykoticK9natschil, non-trivial, you can use some tool out there to convert the image to a raw format, which can then be mounted, but your probably better off just starting the image...20:31
Seperoray_ray: Is this on a laptop you take back and forth from uni?20:31
denndaWhat do I need to tell VLC player so that it opens the fullscreen movie playback on a specific monitor?20:31
ray_rayyeah20:32
qpdbhello, i have got a problem while mounting via sshfs, my mount options are 'uid=1000,gid=33,umask=0644,allow_other' (ids according to designated ids on target-system) .. creating something ends up with group=1000.. it seems 'gid=33' to be unconsidered. what's wrong with it?20:32
ray_rayi find network manager better to use at uni20:32
LjLActionParsnip: i was even thinking - since the remote sensor uses a 3.5 plug as connection - i could try sticking it into the soundcard's line-in... and decode the waveforms somehow =) i'm just afraid to fry the transistor.20:32
ActionParsnipLjL: thatd be sweeeeet20:32
ActionParsnipLjL: not the frying bit20:32
ActionParsnipljl: back up the transistor first LOL20:33
adi1I have installed all gstreamer good bad and ugly decoders20:33
adi1like i normally do after a fresh install20:33
Seperoray_ray: What is the problem(s) you experience at home? And does this problem also happen with other pc's at home?20:33
adi1but in interpid wont work20:33
LjLActionParsnip: lirc actually supports connecting stuff to the soundcard, although it's usually somewhat more involved circuits than just a bare light transistor20:33
AkumaActionParsnip: I added my router as default gateway, however when I go on pages or ping the net it's slow20:33
Akumais this normal?20:33
ActionParsnipAkuma: you may find its using the vpn20:34
ray_rayit does not connect to the lan it picks up that i've plugged it in but cannot establish a connection20:34
ActionParsnipAkuma: you may need to specify some routes20:35
Seperoray_ray: Is your pc dual boot?20:35
ubuntu__can i just install kde or do i have to install kubuntu-desktop?20:35
ray_rayyeah20:35
ray_ray?20:35
ActionParsnipAkuma: like anything destined for the vpn, use the vpn device, anything else use the local web20:35
adi1is anyone familiar with codecs problems and totem20:35
ubuntu__adi1: what problem?20:35
ray_raywindows and ubuntu20:35
=== sebyoga is now known as sebastienyoga
Seperoray_ray: So you boot into MS at home, and into Linux at uni, yes?20:35
sebastienyoga!fr | sebastienyoga20:35
ubottusebastienyoga, please see my private message20:35
ray_raynope usually just linux20:35
AkumaActionParsnip: I see20:36
ray_raywindowz if i REEAALY need to only20:36
Akumaso basically play around with the route command20:36
adi1ok I have an instant crash of totem and vlc on uploading any video file format on interpid20:36
Seperoray_ray: But MS connect to the internet just fine from home, yes?20:36
ray_rayyeah that works fine20:36
EagleScreen:D20:36
ray_rayjust network manager that doesn't want to work right now20:36
LjLActionParsnip: uhm... it actually produces sound when connected to line-in (but not to mic-in, and line-in is far too faint)20:37
adi1what I can do?20:37
ray_raylan works at uni just not at home if i use network manager20:37
Seperoray_ray: Have went into the network manager settings to see if there is any difference from your MS settings?20:37
arcskyi cant stream .mp3 over samba with audacious player. does anyone got an idea why?20:37

adi1I disabled all plugins on totem but no succses20:38
ActionParsnipLjL: you could use the input maybe20:38
ActionParsnipLjL: its gonna be crazy20:38
adi1I still have the same problem20:38
hmwI seem to have a selective problem with Skype; I can call my other PC and the Test Service work fine, too. But when I call a certain friend, he can hear me for about 2 seconds, until my sound completly dies system wide. Ideas?20:38
adi1since two days20:38
LjLActionParsnip: i do suspect it would need an amplifier to be of any use. the current actually produced by a bare light transistor is tiny20:39
LjLActionParsnip: i can only hear a sound if i keep the remote practically stuck onto the sensor20:39

TruthTacowhats the best way for me to install XFCE so i can try it, right now im using gnome, and i dont want to replace gnome just yet20:41
Seperohmw: Sound Devices -> Auto Adjust Mixer Levels20:41
DIFH-icerootTruthTaco: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop20:41

_LionKing_:)20:43
nickrud_ActionParsnip, yeah, couldn't remember an exact package name for the life of me20:44

ActionParsnipJahooty: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-0-in-Ubuntu-8-10-96449.shtml20:44
hmwKottizen, Sepero: I did not yet reboot the machine, I suspect the problem to go away by rebooting, but that wouldn't be a real solution. Skype does strange things often here. I hope, I will find the true source of the error. Thanks for your attention!20:44
nickrud_ActionParsnip, did that, where'd you think I got 4.4.2 ;)20:44
Jahootythanks20:44
ActionParsnipnickrud_: i assume nothing :)20:44
Seperohmw: Reboot why?20:45
Seperohmw: I thought your sound was fixed when you shut down skype?20:45
sexcopterhi, i have a drive (on another pc on lan) mounted with sshfs, but it says 0 bytes free (and it's not actually full), so i can move anything to it. it seems to be mounted rw according to mtab. any ideas?20:45
sexcopters/can/can't20:45
hmwSepero: My Ubuntus (got 4) often stop doing misc. errors after a reboot. I know, rebooting Linux would usually not help, but my expirience tells another story.20:45
jimmygoonSo I'm getting slicehost, should I go with hardy or intrepid for my server?20:46
Seperohmw: ok20:46
nickrud_jimmygoon, if it's going to be a long term stable server, I'd recommend hardy. Unless you need functionality it doesn't have20:46
hmwSepero: Skype wont let me call this one friend. I can call my other PC and the test service, though. So I suspect there is confusion somwhere in RAM.20:46
nickrud_jimmygoon, but #ubuntu-server can help you refine your requirements, probably20:47
BuilderBobHi! Im debugging a friends computer (Ubuntu 8.10) and all the window frames for resizing, moving wondows and so forth are gone... dont know how or why this happened, but can it be fixed?20:47
Seperohmw: Try calling me- sepero11120:47
FroMasterI've got a lot of experience with Gentoo Linux and like the idea of never having to "upgrade" my OS as I just need to keep up to date with the latest builds. With Ubuntu is the upgrade process from one release to another just as easy? (or easier because everything doesn't need to compile)20:47
jimmygoonnickrud_, its mostly just personal tinkering but I'll ask around in there. Thanks!20:47
nickrud_BuilderBob, try alt-f2   gtk-window-decorator --replace (if you're using compiz)  metacity --replace otherwise20:47
c0p3rn1cBuilderBob: it's your window manager20:47
sebsebseb 20:47
vegai just did a daily update on intrepid, these were update: libcurl3 libcurl3-gnutls libnm-glib0 libnm-util0 network-manager network-manager-gnome, after this i'm being told to reboot, why??20:47
c0p3rn1cBuilderBob: are you using compiz-fusion?20:48
sebsebsebvega: only more important stuff needs an update  normalley, but I guess network manger is pretty important really20:48
SineDeviancevega: you're being told to reboot because those packages are used by gnome desktop environment all the time20:48
nickrud_vega, probably for the network manager20:48
blue-frogvega: because of network-manager. you can still work on your computer. ther's no rush to rebooot20:48
_LionKing_FloodBot320:48
SineDevianceto use the new packages you have to reboot20:48
c0p3rn1cwindow decoration righ*20:48
c0p3rn1ct20:48
dotblankvega: network manager probably asks for the sessions to restart20:48
krabadorhi people, i recovered a reiserfs root from bad sector, i run reiserfsck /dev/sda1 --fix fixable and, after an error, with --rebuild-tree. This last was good {grub start, and not before} but i've many error of files missing. can i reinstall with synaptic/livecd some fondamental package to run my old installation, only for easy backup?20:49
_LionKing_speak one's friends one by one I do not understand anything, please talk20:49
_LionKing_:)20:49
ZykoticK9FroMaster, keeping Ubuntu updated is SO much easier and smoother then Gentoo (I was a Gentoo fan for many years but got tired of updates braking my system), however updating from version to version it's still recommended that you fresh install (for the most part anyways)20:49
vegaso why not do a network-manager restart or something like this? sounds kinda windowsish to me..20:49
sebsebsebkrabador: oh murderfs20:49
nickrud_SineDeviance, not always, in fact not often.20:49
vegaSineDeviance: why not then just logout and login?20:50
krabadorsebsebseb: :)20:50
dotblankvega: try restarting the session. and maybe "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"20:50
nickrud_vega, it's not a service. you could do as vega just said to get the latest network manager20:50
BuilderBobc0p3rn1c: yeah! disablong compiz makes the frames come back... can that be fixed?20:50
nickrud_BuilderBob, when you re enable compiz, do they still stay off?20:50
c0p3rn1cBuilderBob: if you're using compiz-fusion you could also install compiz-icon(compiz-icon)20:51
BuilderBobnickrud_: yep20:51
FroMasterZykoticK9: (I'm working with VMware Virtual Machines) Do you mean fresh install as in boot from an ISO image and do an upgrade *OR* create a new Virtual Machine, install the new OS version and migrate over all my applications and data?20:51
vegawell my ip is static, so i guess it doesn't really matter20:51
nickrud_BuilderBob, at that point, try alt-f2  gtk-window-manger --replace20:51
BuilderBobc0p3rn1c: its the "native" compiz that came with the installation20:51
c0p3rn1cBuilderBob: sorry thats sudo apt-get install fusion-icon20:51
sebsebsebFroMaster: which VMware product?20:51
^Uccio^ciao a tutti20:51
nickrud_BuilderBob, gtk-window-manager , don't misspell it ;)20:51
BuilderBobnickrud_ and c0p3rn1c whos advice to follow? :)20:52
ZykoticK9FroMaster, I was speaking "Generally", you can certainly update your VM instead of doing a fresh install (I was just suggesting that fresh installs tend to have fewer problems)20:52
c0p3rn1cBuilderBob: nickrud20:52
nickrud_BuilderBob, fusion-icon simply enables/disables compiz20:52
FroMastersebastien: ESX20:52
sebsebsebFroMaster: VMware server?20:52
monostoneis it possible to run an dist-upgrade to a chroot environment? how are linux-headers handled, if the chroot filesystem doesn't have any kernel images in /boot20:53
c0p3rn1cBuilderBob: I only know fusion-icon works if you installed compiz-fusion20:53
FroMastersebsebseb: I'm talking about using Ubuntu as a Guest OS on ESX server20:53
Jahootydoes anyone know why open office will slice of the top of a line when viewing a .doc file?20:53
sebsebsebFroMaster: Virtualbox can use  VMDK files,  then you don't need to bugger around with some stupid VMware VMX file.  which might be useful information for something.20:53
sebsebsebJahooty: well maybe20:53
c0p3rn1cBuilderBob: compiz-fusion never hurts though, it's pretty cool20:54
ActionParsnip!vmware20:54
ubottuVMWare is not available in the Ubuntu repositories. Consider using !QEmu or !VirtualBox as alternatives. Instructions for installing VMWare manually are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware20:54
ZykoticK9sebsebseb, FroMaster mentioned he was using ESX so suggesting Virtualbox is probably not an option20:54
sebsebsebJahooty: I guess it depends for a start what is in the document20:54
ActionParsnipc0p3rn1c: try just pretty, not cool20:54
ActionParsnipc0p3rn1c: ;)20:54
c0p3rn1chaha20:54
sebsebsebZykoticK9: yeah I was thinking that to, it dosan't realy do servers?  ,but they got another product for that I guess20:54
Jahootywhat do you mean?20:54
FroMastersebsebseb: I'm familiar with virtualbox...20:54
nickrud_BuilderBob, any luck with the --replace ?20:54
c0p3rn1cActionParsnip: ok what do you got on your pimped-out ubuntu linux ? :D20:55
sebsebsebJahooty: well  .doc is a closed format, only Microsoft  know how to make a program that suppourts it 100% properly20:55
BuilderBobnickrud_: got an error message... checked somethin and trying again...20:55
c0p3rn1canything cool lol ?20:55
sebsebsebJahooty: every other program  that suppourts it has to reverse enginner suppourt,  which is a very clever programming technique20:55
saptapheyyy anyone20:55
saptapi eed some help20:55
ActionParsnipc0p3rn1c: fluxbox + bora_blue theme20:55
saptapneed20:55
Jahootydo you don't know why?20:56
sebsebsebJahooty: as a result,  Open Office won't be able to open every .doc  the  same as Word20:56
FroMasterZykoticK9: If I wanted to setup a Ubuntu Server VM with an older version and then upgrade to the latest to test the process would I go from 8.04 to 8.10 or would i get something older like a 7.x release then go to 8.10?20:56
sebsebsebJahooty: try Abiword with your document, you may find it opens better there, also you can try KOffice20:56
_VIM_sebsebseb: 'suppourt'? is that UK English?20:56
ActionParsnipc0p3rn1c: http://tenr.de/styles/preview/bora_blue.png20:56

ActionParsnip_VIM_: uk english is the original20:56

sebsebsebsince they don't have there  own real language,  they  take UK English and do some changes to it20:56

jeffjeffdejeffanyone able to test my remote desktop please?20:57

BuilderBobnickrud_:  got 'Couldnt open location/place "file:///home/mamma/gtk-window-manager%20--replace"    (translated from swedish)20:57
sebsebsebActionParsnip: indeed :) and so UK  English is the more correct20:57
ActionParsnipc0p3rn1c: i dont care for gloss, gets in the way of what i'm actually doing20:57
hmwSepero: Does this tell you anything: http://pastebin.com/m386d7b3e20:57

nickrud_BuilderBob, sorry, I went by memory:   gtk-window-decorator20:57
hmwping20:58
krabadorhi people, i recovered a reiserfs root from bad sector, i run reiserfsck /dev/sda1 --fix fixable and, after an error, with --rebuild-tree.

yoyit2how do i install a .rpm file?20:58
HARDhousebrasirc.org20:58
sebsebsebActionParsnip: where abouts?20:58
_VIM_yoyit2: .RPM's are not for Ubuntu20:58
ZykoticK9FroMaster, that's really up to you???  I take it this is for testing purposes?20:58
sebsebsebyoyit2: ok  this is a Debian based distro20:58
nickrud_yoyit2, it you not20:58
hmwSepero: does this tell you anything: http://pastebin.com/m386d7b3e ?20:58
sebsebsebyoyit2:  so you can't just install .rpm ,but you can convert them to deb using Alien20:58
nickrud_*don't. yoyit2 what is it you want to install?20:58
nickrud_!alien | sebsebseb20:58
ubottusebsebseb: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported)20:58
BuilderBobnickrud_:  hmm.... didnt seem to do anything...20:58
FroMasterZykoticK9: Yeah, to get a feel of what it would be like to migrate all my VMs from Gentoo to Ubuntu20:59
sebsebsebnickrud: yes I just told him20:59
Seperohmw: I'm looking at it20:59
ActionParsnipsebsebseb: leeds, west yorks, you?20:59
yoyit2nickrud: its a program for lightscribe20:59
nickrud_BuilderBob, not sure what it is then. I'd suggest asking in #compiz if someone is available20:59
_VIM_sebsebseb: I wouldn't recommend Alien, it's not supported as nickrud_pointed out20:59
sebsebsebActionParsnip: South West20:59
nickrud_yoyit2, you sure it's not in the repos?20:59
ActionParsnipsebsebseb: like cornwall?20:59
sebsebsebnah20:59
yoyit2nickrud: the what?? im new to linux20:59
ZykoticK9FroMaster, as far as updating between Ubuntu versions someone else here is a better person to ask, I've always done clean reinstalls???20:59
sebsebsebActionParsnip: let's go PM I guess if you want, since we are off topic21:00
ZykoticK9FroMaster, you must also want to look into Ubuntu JEOS if your running them in virtual machines21:00
nickrud_yoyit2, system->admin->synaptic package manager. As a general rule, you get stuff there rather than downloading and installing like windows21:00

notmeeeeso would i have to install kde from scratch?21:04

sebsebsebnotmeeee: and Xubuntu and  so on21:04

sebsebsebnotmeeee: you  can  have Ubuntu and Kubuntu and Xubuntu in the same  install21:05
sebsebsebnotmeeee: yes you can add it21:05
notmeeeesebsebseb:  there is no install yet21:05
seeurchinzi want that remote desktop session to be a replacement for an os on those connecting computers if that makes sense21:05
Scunizinotmeeee: if you're running from the live cd and you would like to look at kubuntu you would have to download the live cd for kubuntu and boot from that.. if you have Ubuntu installed and want to try kubuntu then sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and then change sessions on boot21:05

Caesihi all, anyone have any idea why scrolling down in Firefox is lagging? thanks21:11
glitsj16npshmear: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4451132 is for hardy, but the setup for 5.1 sound is the same in intrepid (using pulseaudio on that forum page)21:11
yoyit2nickrud: you said somthing about using the rpm with synaptic.. what do i do??21:11
thiebaudeCaesi: firefox does that alot21:11
sebsebsebCaesi: no, but  Firefox can go wrong on Ubuntu21:11
npshmearThank you glit21:11
Caesisebsebseb & thiebaude: it didn't use to do it21:11
thiebaudeoh, ok21:11
sebsebsebyoyit2: no  Synaptic is a Graphical User Interface  for apt-get or aptitude   which  installs  Deb's21:12
Stephen|Ediblesnpshmear, : well, how did you install EVE on your ubuntu partition?21:12
thiebaudeCaesi: did you install any new plugins for it?21:12
sebsebsebCaesi: quite a few other good browsers for Linux :)21:12
hmwCasei: FF isnt't the fastest in scrolling. Gnome is quite slow on most machines, where I saw it, especially, if complex things have to be scrolled (Like Compitz Configuration).21:12
thiebaudeCaesi: i use opera21:12
yoyit2sebsebseb: so how do i install this rpm??????????21:12
sebsebsebhmw: you do reolize that  Firefox is not part of  real Gnome?21:12
glitsj16Caesi: could have several causes, a lot of webpages define background-attachments as fixed, if you have stylish for example, addind a oneliner to change those into scroll might be worthwhile21:12
npshmearstephen: downloaded the .deb file from the eve site, then ran it, it downloaded and unpackaged...  I didn't konw of any other way =p21:12
_LionKing_Is that someone can answer me21:13
sebsebsebnpshmear: by default terminal is in home and so if your Deb is:   sudo dpkg -i  namegoeshere.deb21:13
sebsebseband it installs21:13
Stephen|Ediblesnpshmear, : Ah, in that case eve has obviously released a linux version (I dont play the game myself.)21:13
hmwsebsebseb: It looks like FF would be using some "smooth scrolling" feature, because on my Fedora, FF is MUCH faster in scrolling. I didn't know, you mean, FF does it's scrolling without the system? Anyhow, even the system monitor's process list is SLOW.21:14
wandering1what is the best browser that will allow a Ubuntu user to view Flash content?  I'm having issues with FF.21:14
sebsebsebyoyit2: ok what program do you want to run?  what is the RPM for21:14
npshmearstephen: yes it's on the downloads page, i wanted to check it out, see how it ran, in the case that i permanently switch to linux from windows.21:14
sebsebsebhmw: Ubuntu has a Ubuntu version of FIrefox,  which coes not always work that well21:14
Caesithiebaude: not explicitely :) I used Opera too, but I think it doesn't show the fonts well enough; sebsebseb: true :) but Firefox is okay - apart from this (!) glitsj16 hmm Stylish?21:14
thiebaudeCaesi: the fonts in opera can be changed21:14
Caesithiebaude: I know I've done that.. but the menu fonts and all.. I find them too blurry etc.21:15
wandering1what is the best browser that will allow a Ubuntu user to view Flash content?  I'm having issues with FF.21:15
Stephen|Ediblesnpshmear, : I'm not entirely sure what could be the problem then - assuming it only happens with eve and you've checked that your graphics card is okay with eve and up to date on drivers..21:15
yoyit2sebsebseb: its for a lightscirbe program (DONT refer me back to the install guid, everyone else has)21:15
hmwsebsebseb: After many resetups, also with different hardware combinations, I have an Ubuntu, that is at least *useable*, but I'd still wish for all those slowly scrolling lists (Processes, ccsm) to be 4 times faster.21:15
thiebaudeCaesi: what i do is change the system font in Appereance Menu21:15
sebsebsebCaesi: other browsers for you to try:  Konqueror,  Galeon,  Epiphany (when installing sudo apt-get install epiphany-browser or you will end up with a game.  It  also might not add itself to menu so in terminal to open just do: epiphany-browser),  Seamonkey21:15
seeurchinzwhat i'm looking for is a thin client system, i think. a way to allow multiple computers to access the same, castrated graphical interface, sort of like your local library might have21:16
npshmearstephen: i think it may be linked to the sound.. my front right speaker is still making some crackly/static noise...21:16
glitsj16Caesi: stylish is an add-on to let you define your own layout on pages, if you nknow CSS you can overrule any element on the page you like, and there's a few scroll related add-ons as well, like smooth-scrolling at the addons.mozilla.org website21:16

DeadWalkingHi, I'm on the Live CD and tried to install it on a USB but it just crashes every time.21:17
hmwsebsebseb: I noticed, that Fedora is much better in scrolling, it seems to be Gnome using some "smooth scrolling" for all list objects; I found out about that, because I could turn it off in Fedora, and all the sudden, all lists were much better in scrolling. Is there a similar option in Ubuntu?21:17
sebsebseb!install21:17

Caesithiebaude: I've done so too, but they're still not as good as in FF, at least on mine(?); sebsebseb: ta, I might check them out now; glitsj16: ahh thanks, I'm not really familiar with CSS, but I might also try and get into that.. thanks all!21:17

sebsebsebyoyit2: well  Alien, but whatever that guy was saying about it not being that good21:19
hmwsebsebseb: no. Seems to be Gnome's list objects, that are slow, due to a seemingly applied smooth scroll effect. I would like to turn off ANY animated: scrolls of lists/window content, all the bars in FF that try to animatedly display info bars and any blending effects. Would make my system much more usable.21:19

mbreumI got speaker-test working with HDMI output like this 'speaker-test -d plughw:1,3' - and entering plughw:1,3 for mythtv audio device makes myth work fine with sound. But how do I set plughw:1,3 as the default device, so youtube on firefox also works with audio thru HDMI?22:47
evantanderseni have this file in my /etc/pm/sleep.d/ directory, and it does not work. When I execute the file manually, however, it does. I have added modprobe to my sudoers file, with my admin name. Here is the script file: http://paste.ubuntu.com/126044/22:47
hoontekeBlast: another annoyance wtih Ubuntu, probably.  There are many layers of sound.  I often find that the double-clicking on the gnome volume control lets me set the device level22:47
GeorgeAScottafter upgrading to 8.10, my aiptek tablet doesn't work.  the xorg.conf lines are all commented out, saying that hal now covers this.  i found a howto on creating an fdi file in the /etc/hal/devices but no luck.  can i uncomment xorg.conf and continue using that setup?22:47
hmwmacrocosm: I can't tell really, it simply replaced my Network Manager and I am using it for wifi with my notebook.22:47
hoontekeBlast: while using padevchooser->volume control I can set the channel level22:48
ZykoticK9macrocosm, you have checked that your DNS server is listed in /etc/resolve.conf???22:48
aplusI have a Dell laptop and it will not start up after it froze. The power source and battery work. When i try to start it up, the lights come on for a few seconds then turn back off again. Any thoughts?22:48

dstarhoonteke: hmm... okay, I have my command-line beeps back, but not my flash sound in FF....22:48
macrocosm@hmw thanks I will check it out .. though I think its prolly not my issue .. Its something to do with ubuntu server being vertualized22:48
hmwmacrosm: you can simply replace /etc/resolv.conf with a file containing a single line: nameserver IP-ADDRESS22:48
mbreumasoundconf doesn't include plughw devices as options?22:48

hoontekeBlast: err, I have it as a gnome-applet, added to my taskbar thingy upt op22:49

eTranquilityHi, I'm running 8.10. Synaptic can't seem to connect to the internet, so I can't get updates or install through it. It shows download speed at unknown. It was recently working fine but I'm not sure what triggered this. Possibly related is Gnome Do's inability to post tweets, which also previously worked. I can use Firefox and Pidgin with no problems. How do I rectify the situation?22:51

coreyI am looking for a window manager that will give me better battery life22:52
Blastnow it is completely quiet22:52
hoontekeaplus: hmm, without doing more diagnostics, it sounds like a hardware error then.  Can you even get to the bios screen?22:52
aplushoonteke: the laptop doesn't even light up the screen whatsoever, only the capslock, power, and number lock icons. And only briefly22:52
aplusThen shuts off22:52
hoontekeBlast: are you sure it isn't a n instante messaging client issue?22:52
hmwcorey: mayin power consumer regarding GPU is any 3D stuff. Turning off compiz should save a significant amount of battery.22:52

aplusThe computer  does stay on 24/722:53

raphaWhat is the keyboard shortcut for previous/next tab in GEdit?22:54
hoontekeaplus: for future reference, if it's a non-booting mobo, often mobo's will beep at you.  It's annoying, but if you have the specs for the mobo, or can look them up, it will tell you what the issue is.22:54
Blasti think it will blow out my speekers22:54
macrocosm@hmw ... I really appreciate your help ... I will do some more research on resolv.conf22:54

giovanieveryone needs to chill out23:02
Flannelaustin: What type of server?23:02

Dr_williscoreyman,  it may be a bad file/download then..23:10

Jufismbreum, I'll try that.23:11
austinoCean_:  it said failed to connect....and i'm talking about in a GUI23:11
Boneehi, i'm new to ubuntu and a freequent irc user, does anyone know the best irc client that supports multiple servers and scripts?23:11
Dr_williscoreyman,   possibally - I always use the gnomeartng tool  and let it scan/download/install themes for me. its handy23:11
FlannelBonee: x-chat is popular among GUI clients (for gnome), Konversation for KDE, and irssi for CLI23:11
giovaniBonee: "best" is just a matter of opinion -- some like xchat, some like konversation23:11
giovanixchat has pretty wide usage, and so, if you're looking for a wide variety of scripts, it's probably your best bet23:12
oCean_austin: ok. First of all, did you see what hmw send you? (the ubottu link) - run commands using "sudo" to gain root privileges23:12
ZykoticK9Bonee, I'm a noob with irc, but xchat supports multiple servers, not sure about the scripting23:12
Dr_williscoreyman,  its also possible you are doing somthing wrong.  There are several themes in the repositories  you could install if you wanted a few more also.23:12
AltreusAt the risk of repeating a known problem, I get failed in buffer_read(fd): md5hash: Input/output error from kdelibs-data (4:3.5.10-0ubuntu1~hardy1.1)23:12

LogicFananyone familiar with rubygems and installing rails on ubuntu?23:12
coreymanDr_willis can you go step by step with me.23:12
giovaniBonee: yes, konversation support scripts23:12
oCean_austin: check the apache logfile: "sudo tail /var/log/apache2/error_log" <-- this is in a terminal23:12
jondicedalt, ctrl, and windows don't do it23:12
Dr_willissofakng,  grub reads the menu.lst at boot up. You dont really have to worry about it.23:12

LogicFanon ubuntu 8.10 64bit23:13
Dr_williscoreyman,  not really. Im not in gnome..  You may want to check out the gnomeartng tool. it can install themes/wallpaper/decorations and stuff from the gnome-look sites with a nice gui.23:13

coreymanDr_willis that sounds like a good tool.23:13

oCean_austin: the installation, how did you do that?23:17
Dr_williscoreyman, http://developer.berlios.de/projects/gnomeartng/23:17
mbreumJufis: yes, I would assume so23:17
oCean_austin: default install (e.g. through synaptic or aptitude) should create all necessary directories23:18
austinoCean_: i don't remember exactly, but it was ether a choice i selected when install server ed., or i did the Sudo apt-get23:18
Jufismbreum, do I need to unset pulseaudio or oss? or do anything else?23:18
hmwaustin: by reading this introduction, you will learn the most importan things about linux, for a normal user, the text goes quite deep into details.http://tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/23:18

oCean_eTranquility: indeed. Just something to check..23:19
AltreusZykoticK9: It didn't seem to fix the issue because it's not trying to download it again. There are other files matching kdelibs-data in /var/lib/dpkg/info but I'm not sure how safe it would be to meddle with them23:19
``ph8hey yo! I'm trying to use 'Seatools' for linux (Seagate's disk diagnostic stuff) - but it comes up with a 'no such file or directory' error - this worked before I wiped my hard drives and reinstalled ubuntu - any guesses at what libraries it might rely on?23:19
coreymanDr_willis : When I try to open gnomeartng it says it can't open cause the associated helper application does not exist.23:20
ZykoticK9Altreus, but you tried deleting the file kdelibs-data?23:20
mbreumJufis: Heard someone say that you shouldn't use pulse and recommended uninstalling it. Why do you have oss - did you install that explicitly?23:20
oCean_austin: hm.. See what is in config: "cd /etc/apache2" and then "ls -al sites-enabled"23:20

Jufismbreum, I also got ALSA. Should I leave it or uninstall it?23:28
gjesvikACCEPT JESUS23:28
Flannelgjesvik: Please stay on topic23:28
Daremoheh23:28
Flannelc0ca1n3: You dualboot? or you just have them both installed?23:28
c0ca1n3Flannel : I have them both installed23:29
DaremoI am trying to install a patch for Mesa... here http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=954dfba12986f578f2d8461818f9e9ac1f8f2b4123:29
ZykoticK9c0ca1n3, you could mount the ubuntu drive???23:29
Daremonot sure how to start other than downloading it... which i have done...23:29
mbreumJufis: ALSA is the default23:29
puffHiyo... I'm installing ubuntu on a box that has no network.  Is there a way I can download a bunch of packages to a CD to use instead ofa repo?23:29
Daremoisnt there a way to apt-get something like that?23:29
c0ca1n3ZykoticK9  I donno what mount is, sorry23:29
Jufismbreum, oh okay23:29
Flannelc0ca1n3: Dualboot? or on the same install?23:29
eTranquilityoCean_: Synaptic works fine launched from terminal... no errors, just connection errors if I try to update or install.23:30
ZykoticK9puff, if another computer has ubuntu on it you could copy the contents of /var/cache/apt/archive to this computer?  just install/update everything you need on the ubuntu with network connection23:30
c0ca1n3Flannel : ummm.. I have them both installed on the same pc semarately.. (no idea what dualboot is :D)23:30
Flannelc0ca1n3: Separately?  Alright.  So you pick one or the other at your boot screen? (at GRUB? where you select a kernel?) not where you log in?23:31
Jufismbreum, sorry to bother you so much, but seems like I have this linux-sound-base package installed. "base package for ALSA and OSS sound systems. This package allows the administrator to choose between the OSS and ALSA sound systems."23:31
c0ca1n3Flannel : on the boot screen23:31
Jufismbreum, I think I got oss with that package23:31
* Daremo wonders if anyone can see him.. or if hes lagged.. alot23:31
Flannelc0ca1n3: Alright.  That's dual booting.  You didn't need to dual boot, by the way.  Xubuntu and Ubuntu can exist on the same install (same partition/etc), with the same users, at that.23:32
oCean_eTranquility: sorry mate, I'm out of options. Was hoping some helpful messages might appear in terminal.23:32
GeorgeAScotti see you ***Daremo23:32
c0ca1n3Flannel : I'm kinda new at this so I didn't know all the details23:33
DaremoThanks george23:33
Flannelc0ca1n3: But yes, you can read your other files on this install. you just have to mount your other partition.  (If this is a new install for one of them, you should strongly consider removing the new install, and just adding it to the other)23:33
eTranquilityoCean_: Thanks anyway. = )23:33
Flannelc0ca1n3: So, this is a brand new install? (at least, one of them is?)23:33
mbreumJufis: Hm.. I would think you could uninstall oss and leave the sound-base package in place23:33
oCean_austin: are you giving up? I have about 6 minutes of battery life left, and with the plug being at the office.. I'll be gone in 6 mins...23:33
c0ca1n3ummmm.. I guess so23:33
oCean_eTranquility: ok. Hope you find the fix :)23:34

Flannelc0ca1n3: Did you just install Ubuntu? (and have been using Xubuntu for a bit?)23:34
ZykoticK9Daremo, for that patch you'd need to have the source code, then manually apply the patch, then compile the new version and install it -- not specifically an ubuntu question???  good luck23:34

Daremobtw23:35
Daremothat SHOULD be the solution to the dual screen compiz problem you were helping me with last night23:35
c0ca1n3Flannel : So what do I need to do to mount?23:35
Flannelc0ca1n3: Alright, well, the *best* (for future) thing to do would be to copy all of your files from your Ubuntu one over to your other home folder (to the Xubuntu one) and then remove the Ubuntu one, expand your Xubuntu one to take up the entire space, and then install `ubuntu-desktop`23:35
silversurferMy dual boot Ubuntu/Vista dual SATA system won't boot (error code 73) after installing Vista SP1.  Can someone please help me to the fastest way to backup the data on the Vista side and then to recover the system?23:36

c0ca1n3hmmm.. for an example if I am in ubuntu OS I need to take that same step?23:36
Daremoi am running over 2048 x 1024 for resolution and compiz really doesnt like that23:36
hmwDaremo: ATI?23:37
Jufismbreum, lol. When I select pulseaudio to be uninstalled from synaptic package manager, it says that I need to uninstall ubuntu-desktop too.23:37
Daremouh huh...23:37
Daremo925023:37
Flannelc0ca1n3: If you plan on doing it right now, you're probably best off using a liveCD to do everything.  It (should) mount everything by default, so you can just copy stuff from one to the other.  Then shuffle partitions23:37
jgoodwho should i be talking to about the installing of ubuntu problems?23:37
FlannelJufis: that's correct.  ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage, its safe to remove.23:37
GeorgeAScottmines 2304x102423:38
c0ca1n3Flannel : okz23:38
mbreumJufis: Is alsa installed? If not, you may install that and see if you can remove pulse then...23:38
ZykoticK9jgood, just ask your question and someone might answer23:38
hmwDaremo: maximum texture size of your GPU is 2024x2048, you gotta live with that. If you want both screens to have a higher resolution, you need to place them one above the other. Ugly, but works.23:38
Daremoblech23:38
hmwDaremo: 2048^2 of course.23:38
jgoodwell, i partitioned my hard drive to dual boot xp and ubuntu, and when i go to instal ubuntu i put the disk in, it comes up to the setup screen i click install ubuntu ... and then nothing23:39
Schwaganyone know anything about pppconfig?23:39
Daremois that a fix for the next ubuntu release? or xrandr?23:39
Daremohopeful fix i shoudl say23:39

coreymanWhat in the heck are they in peices for.23:40

ZykoticK9jgood, have you tried using the option to "install ubuntu" rather then "try ubuntu without any change to your computer" when you first boot the cd?23:41

austinoCean: sorry about that, had to go real quick23:41
jgoodzykotick9, thats the only one i did try23:41
Daremowell whats interesting is in that bug description, they specifically mention that compiz is doing something wrong with the size23:42
JufisFlannel, what does that "metapackage" mean?23:42
Schwagim trying to use pppconfig for a phone as a modem, using lsusb reads my iden motorola modem, but i cant select it to use with pppconfig23:42
rwwcorinth: just /home would be okay. If you want to keep your system configuration too, /etc would be useful.23:42
Phrozen_OneGeorgeAScott, that lists loaded modules, how can I tell if all of the modules have loaded for the appropriate hardware?23:42
sofakngWhy would a killall -SEGV not terminate a frozen application?23:42

DIFH-icerootusing / and /home on a SSD. should i use ext2 or ext3?23:43
Daremoalright thanks for the help23:43
DIFH-icerootand /home are different SSDs23:43
ZykoticK9jgood, have you checked the MD5 of the cd image you downloaded?23:43
rwwcorinth: well, if you're going to keep /usr and everything between reinstalls, I don't see the point of reinstalling ;)23:43
reacunacorinth: maybe /var if your planning on using you comp. to serve stuff. On that same line, /srv , but I haven't seen anyone use it :)23:43
Dr_willisditto,  from what i recaall reading of wirless docs.. you suold just ignore wmaster0 its used internally by the wirless drivers or somthing like that.23:43
jgoodzykotick9, nope, how would i go about doing that?23:44
hmwDaremo: I know, Linux can be hard. Do not give up easily, if you get frustrated. Linux is still best for people, who like to learn/trial&error/reprogram the stuff. You might get to a point, where you want to give up. Don't, you will advance over time, and it pays off a lot, once you domesticated your PC.23:44
dittoDr_willis, how do i ignore?23:44
Dr_willisditto,  dont worry about it?23:44
rwwDIFH-iceroot: ext2. ext3 uses journalling, which will increase writes to your SSD. You might also want to look at noatime and relatime (fstab options)23:44
dittoDr_willis, well it wasnt there bfore and then it showed up. Now I cannot see wireless networks23:44
Dr_willisditto,  i have it on my Netbook.. and wireless works fine. You use the slan0 device..23:44
DIFH-icerootrww: and dont have a journal is ok?23:44
Daremohmw oh im not quitting, im probably just going to go spend 50-75$ on a much more supported video card and not worry about it :)23:44
Dr_willisditto,  that does not prove its the problem. :)23:44
Schwagim trying to use pppconfig for a phone as a modem, using lsusb reads my iden motorola modem, but i cant select it to use with pppconfig23:45
dittoDr_willis, you mean slan0 = wlan0?23:45
Dr_willisyes23:45
rwwDIFH-iceroot: yeah. It's a little less resistant to power failure, but it worked fine for years before ext3 came along ;)23:45
glitsj16Phrozen_One: sudo lshw -html > lshw.html produces a list of hardware present with all sorts of usefull info, the html file output is there for easy reading through a browser .. it has driver info as well if that is what you're looking for23:45

Daremohave a good night im off to make dinner :)23:45
FlannelJufis: a metapackage is a package that doesn't provide any files itself, but depends on files.  ubuntu-desktop depends on all the packages you need for a desktop install of Ubuntu (with gnome), but it doesn't provide any of those files itself.23:45

jwaldoHello, I'm trying to dual-boot Ubuntu and XP on my EeePC 900HA. I have 60GB of free space on the drive, but it doesn't seem to notice that during the install, and wants to either resize the XP partition or use the whole drive. Any way around that?23:57
ActionParsnipfbc: depends when the system was accessed? you could find files editted in the last 1 day, then 2  days and last 3 days and so on then find their user ownerships etc23:57
